TeeGuard is built on Google Cloud
TeeGuard is built on Google Cloud and was selected for the Google for Startups Cloud Program, which we are proud of. For your club it means a system that copes with a fully booked Saturday, keeps your data within the EU and rests on a platform audited by independent auditors.
What it means for your club
This is what your club gets from TeeGuard being built on Google Cloud.
Alerts get through, even on a fully booked Saturday
The system grows automatically with the load. When the course is full, the marshal gets alerts as quickly as on a quiet Tuesday morning.
Your data stays within the EU
The database and the images from your course are stored within the EU, and the goal is to hold them on Google Cloud in Stockholm. Sign-in, email and text messages go through providers within the EU.
Security checked by independent auditors
Google Cloud is regularly audited against ISO 27001 and SOC 2. The audits cover the platform we build on, not TeeGuard as a company.
Improvements without downtime
New features and fixes roll out while the web app keeps running. Your staff never wait for a maintenance window.
Backups every day
The database is backed up automatically every day, so your club's data can be restored if anything goes wrong.
We see problems before you do
We are alerted the moment something in the system is not working as it should, and can often fix it before anyone at the club notices.
Google Cloud handles the foundation, we handle the rest
Your agreement is with TeeGuard, and we answer to you for the whole. This is how the work is shared.
What Google Cloud handles
- The data centres, with power, cooling and physical security.
- The servers and network TeeGuard runs on.
- Encryption of all stored data.
- Regular audits by independent auditors against ISO 27001 and SOC 2.
What TeeGuard handles
- Blurring: heads are blurred in memory before anything is stored in the cloud, and no video is stored.
- Making sure each club sees only its own data, and only what each person's role needs.
- Keeping the database and images within the EU.
- Updates and improvements to the system.
- The agreement with you, and responsibility for how your club's data is handled.
The audits cover the Google Cloud platform. TeeGuard holds no ISO or SOC 2 certification of its own.
How we handle your club's dataQuestions about the platform
Where is our data stored?
Within the EU. The database and the blurred images are kept there, and the images are deleted within 24 hours. The goal is to hold the database and the images on Google Cloud in Stockholm. Sign-in, email and text messages go through providers within the EU.
What happens if something stops working?
We are alerted straight away and troubleshoot the same day. The services restart automatically if a server fails, and the database is backed up every day.
Is TeeGuard certified?
No, TeeGuard holds no certification of its own. The platform we build on, Google Cloud, is audited by independent auditors against ISO 27001 and SOC 2, among others. What we are responsible for ourselves is set out on this page and on the privacy and security page, and we are happy to go through it with you.
Who can see our club's data?
Your club's authorised staff, each according to their role. One club never sees another club's data. TeeGuard processes the data only on your club's instructions and accesses it only when needed for operations and troubleshooting.
What is the Google for Startups Cloud Program?
The programme is for selected start-ups building on Google Cloud, and TeeGuard is one of them. It gives us access to training and technical support as we build. The programme is not a certification of TeeGuard: what we promise you, we answer for ourselves.
